First, let's look at the conditions: The lake level is currently at 1067.24 feet, which is about 3.76 feet below full pool. Water temperatures are ranging between 60-62 degrees, which is ideal for winter fishing. The main lake is clear, with some light stain in the backs of the creeks, and there are still some remnants of turnover in isolated areas[1][3][4].
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high in the mid-50s and a low in the mid-30s. Sunrise is at 7:27 AM, and sunset will be at 5:14 PM.
Fish activity has been robust, especially for striped bass. With the full moon approaching on December 15, bird activity is increasing, which can be a great indicator for locating stripers. These fish have spread out across the lake, but you can find them in creeks like Chestatee, Chattahoochee, Johnson/Lathem, Thompson, Gainesville, Little River, Flowery Branch, and Bald Ridge[1][3].
For striped bass, the go-to artificial lures this month are Striper Tackle Jigging Spoons and Pro Swim Bait heads rigged on a 2.8” Keitech swim bait. Live baits such as herring, bluegill, shad, shiners, and small trout are also highly effective[1][2].
Spotted bass are also active, often found around rocky channel-banks, logs, and brush. Artificial lures like super flukes and bucktail jigs work well, as do live baits like crayfish, nightcrawlers, and minnows[2].
Crappie fishing is also picking up, with fish found in shallower waters from 10 to 20 feet deep, particularly around brush piles in open water. Minnows and jigs are proving highly effective for crappie[4].
Some hot spots to consider include the upper end of the lake around Little River Park, where the shallows and rocky areas are home to bass and other species. Another good spot is the southern end near Buford Dam at West Bank Park, which is known for its colder waters and good bass fishing[5].
Overall, Lake Lanier is offering a great fishing experience this time of year, with a variety of species active and several effective lures and baits to use. Just keep an eye on the water clarity and bird activity to maximize your chances of a successful day on the water.
